You are to leave that place, at a moment when no other Officer of the Government is on the spot, and the Chief Superintendent is well assured.

You are to feel that while in the office you must hold your duty paramount, and that it necessarily becomes (however painfully) the privilege of being with your Corps, in any Military operations in which it may be engaged.

My Lord,

26 October, 1844.

I trust that Field Marshal the Duke of Wellington, Commanding in Chief, will pardon me for intruding my respectful and Earnest recommendation in favour of Brevet Major Caine, of H.M. 26th Fort, whose application to obtain an unattached Majority is, I believe, at this moment, under his Grace's consideration. It is, I feel, totally unnecessary for me to trespass on Lieutenant General ...

The Lord Fitzroy Somerset, M.P.
